Opioid Message Fatigue in the United States
Background The opioid crisis has generated widespread public attention and messaging. However, persistent messaging may contribute to message fatigue, i.e., feelings of exhaustion and boredom due to excessive and redundant exposure. This study investigates the prevalence of opioid message fatigue among American adults, its association with individual characteristics, and its connection with opioid use disorder (OUD) stigma and policy support for …
Refracting Blame in the Fentanyl Era
Background: More than 80,000 Americans died of drug overdoses between August 2022 and August 2023, a crisis most recently driven by synthetic opioids like fentanyl.Objectives: To investigate how blame for the opioid crisis is constructed within the most engaging content on Facebook and Instagram by identifying the dominant thematic frames and patterns of blame attribution. Using CrowdTangle, we collected US opioid-related posts from July 2022 to …
Exploring the Roots of Stigma
The ongoing opioid crisis underscores the urgent need to understand and address stigma toward individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD). Applying message framing theory, this study examines how different segments of the public conceptualize OUD. Through in-depth interviews with 26 U.S. adults, segmented by their OUD experiences (personal, family/friend, or none) and stigma scores (high or low), we explored the underlying reasons for stigmatizing…
Preference for Abstinence-Based Recovery and Public Stigma Toward Substance Use
Background: Stigma toward substance use disorders (SUDs) is pervasive in the United States (U.S.) and often hinders the effective treatment of addiction. There is limited research investigating public stigma toward the use of specific substances. Additionally, The role of perceived dangerousness of a substance needs to be further explored in order to understand how it can impact attitudes toward SUDs. As harm reduction approaches begin to grow in…
Trust in doctors, social support, and belief in Covid-19 misinformation
These findings confirm that trust in doctors is an important protective factor against COVID-19 misinformation. The role of social support, however, is more nuanced and warrants continued research that considers both support sources and the racial and ethnic background of the communities involved
Racial discrimination and mental health in the context of anti-Asian xenophobia
The COVID-19 pandemic, polarized politics, and heightened stigma and discrimination are salient drivers for negative mental health outcomes, particularly among marginalized racial and ethnic minoritized groups. Intersectionality of race, ethnicity, foreign-born status, and educational attainment may distinctively shape an individual's experience of discrimination and mental health during such unprecedented time. The present study examines the dif…
A National Portrait of Public Attitudes toward Opioid Use in the US
Public health policies are most effective in addressing OUD. We suggest targeting interventions toward the "High Stigma/Mixed Public Health and Punitive Policy" group since this group already displays some support for public health policies. Broader interventions, such as eliminating stigmatizing messaging in the media and redacting punitive policies, could reduce OUD stigma among all groups
Openness to change among Covid misinformation endorsers
Social Stigma toward Persons with Opioid Use Disorder
Our data provide guidance to policymakers concerning individuals with certain characteristics to target for public education efforts to reduce stigma and draw more support for public heath interventions for OUD. Our data also suggest that the content of this education should include improving understanding of OUD as a medical condition
